  • Title: X-ray computed tomography of brain tumors in cats.
    Author: LeCouteur RA, Fike JR, Cann CE, Turrel JM, Thompson JE, Biggart JF.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1983 Aug 01; 183(3):301-5. PubMed ID: 6688411.
    Abstract:
    X-ray computed tomography (CT) was used to depict intracranial space-occupying lesions in 5 cats. Computed tomographic findings were confirmed by surgical biopsy in 2 cases and at necropsy in 3 cases. The detailed anatomic information provided by CT scans facilitated surgical removal of a brain tumor in 2 cats, and allowed accurate tumor localization and dose optimization for radiation therapy in 1 cat. It was concluded that CT provides information required for accurate diagnosis and treatment of feline brain tumors.
